Yara Marine Technologies (former Green Tech Marine) is located in Norway and in Sweden and have developed exhaust gas cleaning and energy saving solutions that not only benefit the planet but create significant financial rewards for clients.

By using YMT scrubbers ship owners can continue to operate on heavy fuel oil instead of more costly marine gas oil while staying below the strict IMO requirements regarding sulphur emissions. The YMT scrubbers make it simple to meet new environmental regulations by replacing your ship’s exhaust silencer – no structural modifications required.

YMT scrubbers are able to operate in Dry mode, Open loop and Closed loop as per customer requirements. Thanks to our scrubber’s small footprint and low weight, they are suitable for virtually any kind of vessel, whether it is a new build or a retrofit and can be custom-made for any engine size, both 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. The scrubber requires about the same space as the silencer it is replacing. When operating in closed loop. the YMT scrubber applies harmless Magnesium Oxide as alkali additive, in lieu of the hazardous Caustic Soda - Safety is always our top priority.
